Maps show an abandoned rail siding at this location. Newspaper search returned several hits which use it as a landmark and a few mentions of a farm, but nothing that would meet GNG or support the "populated place" claim. –dlthewave ☎ 16:45, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect I found nothing more than the same newspaper mentions, all from 1909-1918, which refer to the siding on the Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix Railway. No evidence it was any kind of community, but since it was the most notable place in the vicinity (10 miles nort of Prescott at the time, today within the city - it would be called the area just north of the airport), it did seem to be a landmark in the 1910s. Redirect to the railroad article where it can be mentioned. MB 03:59, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
